Prevention before intervention

Building busy people’s resilience and inner resources with mindfulness,
meditation and professional mental health support.

Live well and reap the benefits of a mindful mind, for life.

welcome to a mindful mind

Hello, I’m Vivienne Law!

I’m a mental health nurse, meditation practitioner and mindful self-compassion teacher.

My mission is to align you with the right mindfulness and meditation practices so you can experience long lasting positive mental wellbeing.

Drawing upon my clinical experience working at Australia’s largest adult psychiatric hospital, I curate classes, programs and retreats that cultivate kind conversations, confidence and consistency, so you continue to reap the benefits of a mindful mind well into the future.

In doing so, I strive to create a community of wonderful humans, where everyone feels resourced to take care of themselves, thrive from the inside out and live with more compassion, acceptance and curiosity and not merely in the absence of mental ill health. 

My approach is trauma-sensitive, embedded in evidence and a skilful blend of clinical expertise, eastern philosophy and formal practice.

SOULFUL SITS (MEDITATION)

Pause, ponder and progress.

Whether it’s part of a group or 1:1, Soulful Sits are carefully curated to help you relax, gain clarity, manage stress and cultivate your desired state of being.

Through sound healing and various modalities of meditation, Vivienne will guide you home and into alignment with how you wish to feel.

Mindful Self-Compassion PROGRAM

Have kinder conversations with yourself and live with ease.

How would you like to tune out from the criticism and chaos and into calm and consideration?

This truly enriching practice helps unveil your self-compassionate side. Through contemplative practices and exercises, you’ll foster greater emotional resilience and be able to stay grounded and effective in the midst of challenges. 

Wouldn’t it be nice to feel yourself flourishing from the inside out?
